Frequently Asked Questions About Glass Doctor Home + Business of Greensboro
Can you replace just one pane on a window?
No. Each double or triple pane window is manufactured in a quality-controlled environment and sealed carefully to keep air or gas trapped between the panes. As more and more windows include a heat reflective low-emissivity (Low-E) surface inside the unit, these become irreparable once moisture oxidizes the material, leaving a discoloured, mouldy appearance inside the unit. Even without a Low-E surface, the water staining that occurs from condensing and evaporating over and over leaves a hazy film on the glass that cannot ever be cleaned to perfection.
How do I know if my glass is a tempered safety glass?
If you use steam to fog the glass, you will see a tempered logo in one of the corners that shows the glass is safety glass. There are code requirements for safety glass as well. Consult with your local Glass Doctor for those requirements.
We are remodeling our bathroom and would like our existing mirror cut down to a smaller size. Can you do that?
Most likely. However, if the mirror is glued to the wall, there is no guarantee that it can be taken down without breaking. If you can get the existing mirror off the wall, we will need the mirror brought to our shop to cut down. There is no guarantee that the mirror will cut without breaking either. We cannot be responsible if a piece of glass or mirror that belongs to a customer breaks when trying to cut it, but we always do our best to cut carefully.
Only the bottom section of my window is broken. Do you have to change the entire sash
We specialize in glass replacement. We can, in most cases, remove the glass from the frame and install new glass. Your existing window sash will remain.
or can you just change the glass in my frame?
Scratch removal in residential glass and light commercial applications is not a commercially viable solution. Basically, it is labour-intensive and not very successful. Furthermore, if the customer is not satisfied with the result, they are understandably not willing to pay for the time and materials invested by the glass company. Scratch removal and scratch buffing systems exist; however, they are typically only practical in warehouses, industrial, and on larger commercial glass projects. Please call our Glass Doctor office if you would like a more detailed explanation.
Can you buff scratches out of glass?
Can you replace just one pane on a double or triple pane window?
No, individual panes on double or triple pane windows cannot be replaced because they are sealed units designed to keep air or gas trapped to maintain performance. Moisture damage and special coatings make repair impossible.
How can I identify if my glass is tempered safety glass?
Tempered safety glass usually has a tempered logo etched in one of the corners that becomes visible when fogged with steam. Local building codes also specify safety glass requirements, so consult your local Glass Doctor for guidance.
Is it possible to resize my existing bathroom mirror during a remodel?
It may be possible if the mirror can be removed without breaking. If removed, bring it to the shop for cutting, but there is no guarantee it won't break during the process. The company is not responsible for breakage during cutting attempts.
If only the bottom section of my window is broken, do I need to replace the entire window sash?
No, the Glass Doctor specializes in glass replacement and can usually replace just the broken glass while keeping your existing window sash intact.
Can scratches be buffed out of residential or light commercial glass?
Scratch removal is generally not commercially viable for residential or light commercial glass due to labor intensity and limited success. Scratch buffing is more practical for larger commercial projects or industrial use.
